Just toying with the idea here. I am thinking about proposing in the next year and I never expected I would be in this position.
My sister was just proposed to and dude must have spent like 10 grand on the ring. I think she feels like he spent too much. It looks like the friggin thing weighs her whole hand down.
Also do you think it is misogynist to ask the lady’s dad for permission?


I asked my father in law if he minded me asking for his daughter’s hand in marriage. We were already quite close and although I was confident in the answer I was still putting myself out there. It wasn’t about ownership or anything like that, it was simply a nod to tradition and I know he appreciated the gesture.
He also loved being the first to know haha
